Which Song Won The Oscar- 1979

 

1979 is an interesting year for movies. You have the Muppets, politics and Sally Field ditching her flying nun and Smokey characters  portraying a tough gal asking for a union. The music is pretty damn good so I chose 1979 for your guesses on which song won the Oscar, which was nominated  and which got nadda plus I'm joining Monday Music Moves Me.

1. IT GOES LIKE IT GOES SUNG BY JENNIFER WARNES

This is from the film, "Norma Rae" which stars Sally Field as a woman who works in a plant and realizes the workers are getting the shaft. This song wasvwritten by David Shire with lyrics by Norman Gimbel. 

2. THE ROSE SUNG BY BETTE MIDLER


This is a famous song written by Amanda McBroom, sung with amazing depth by the great Bette Midler for the film, The Rose."

3. THE RAINBOW CONNECTION SUNG BY KERMIT THE FROG


This great song was written by Paul Williams and David Ascher for the film  "The Muppet Movie." The voice is by Jim Hensen as Kermit the Frog and is another famous song we all love. 

So which song won the Oscar, which was nominated and which one came up with nuttin' honey?
